The team at Fabio Humar Abogados is ‘bold and innovative when making proposals’, say sources. As a dispute resolution boutique exclusively dedicated to economic criminal law, the group handles the full spread of matters, from compliance issues through to criminal investigations and litigation. The firm also stands out for its May 2022 signing of a strategic alliance with Gómez-Pinzón Abogados (GPA), which allows it to lean into the latter’s top-tier corporate practice and significantly expand its service offering. High-profile managing partner Fabio Humar has an impressive 20-year track record in representing individuals and companies in corporate compliance and white-collar crime cases. External lawyer Gloria Liliana Pérez, who was previously with the Attorney General’s Office, is also noted at senior level.
